INQUISITION - ZaunköniG - 09.08.2014 INQUISITION WHY do I love who am not blessed therewith ? Why spend my life in dreaming of her face ? Why do I follow what is but a myth, And proves me to myself as in disgrace For want of reason rightly to perceive That she is kind because she cannot love me ? That she is sweet because she must believe Her smile is still the med'cine to reprove me ? Why do I tarry when her wish is plain That I no more should linger in the way ? Why do I venture when I should refrain ? Why drag my shadow through her shining day ? Nay, ask no more, for love no reason holds, But like a flower to the light unfolds. |
